Community invited to open house at The Women's Connection

The Women's Connection, 4042 Glenway Ave., is celebrating International Women's Day on Friday, March 8, with an open house and art expo.

The center's participants and their families, community members and organizations, past and present board members and the public are invited to the open house from 1-4 p.m. The art expo follows from 5:30-7 p.m.

"The Women's Connection decided to participate in this year's International Women's Day because it is such an important and internationally recognized day for honoring women," said Linda Keller, director of programs.

"We wanted to highlight some of our accomplishments, interests, talents and successes of the women and girls."

The idea for the exposition was born during a watercolor workshop with the women. The women are proud of what they have done and want to share their artwork, along with creations from other workshops, including jewelry, doll and mandala making.

Participants of the girls' programs and the Piecemakers, a weekly quilting group, will also display their work.

For more information, call the center at 471-4673 or visit www.thewomensconnection.org.
